The Alexia Foundation (http://www.alexiafoundation.org/) has the noble goal of helping professional and amateur photographers produce stories and portfolios that promote world peace and understanding. Grants of up to $15,000 per project are available to suitably qualified applicants.
The quality of their winners' pictures is usually stunning. Check out http://www.alexiafoundation.org/archives/
I am an especial fan of Jan Dago's work.

K D. So much talent...
K D. I have just looked at the Walter Astrada portfolio – thank you, Tran. Absolutely horrifying. How can men do that? Brave photographer, brave campaign, but changing fundamental attitudes takes generations…

I find the ability of good photographers to create some images that are beautiful out of such horrors astonishing. It makes a dilemma – does admiring the image draw away from the outrage created by the subject?
